87005km

Tackeling rotten hoses.

What they do, and why they are there, I do not know. The almighty haynes manual didn't have the answer, but they are rotten and leaking where I assume they should be whole, so off with them!

They seem to be a part of the carb-assy, but I'm not sure what they do.

However: they look to be in bad condition, and I will have none of that! And it seems I can make my own version of the hose with some leftover hose I bought for my Shadow.

 
Small and rotting! And not looking very nice!

New one made, and ready to be fittet!



And what do you know! A little bigger, but sturdier! And the bike runs ever smoother now than it did before! I changed both sides, now I just need to figure out what the heck those buggers actually DO!
